    Hi guys,

    what do you think about this one from Italy?
    !t seems to have correct parts (dial, DON bezel).
    But I am not sure about the hands, crown, pushers and other parts you see in the pictures:

    As always, thanks a bunch for all your patience with me and of course, for all your help, comments, feedback and thoughts.

    Cheers!

    I'm no expert, but the dial looks like a service dial (the lume markers are shorter). Can't tell for sure but it is not a step dial, either. The chrono hand has the flat tail. Need pics of the crown and a straight on front shot of the dial. Not worth E6500, IMHO.

    hi, dial and Hands are not correct. As mentioned above probably a Service dial. If I recognized the Serial correctly (2282XXX) it is ok.
    The Pictures are really bad but the bezel Looks "ok", not the best one but acceptable.....
    but 6.5K€ is way too much, escpecially since the dial is not correct......

    Yep am with @corn18 on this one. I suspect there is a reason why the full on dial shot is missing.
    Plus the over polishing that has occurred.

    The fact that someone trying to sell an item for €6,500 would avoid posting a variety of good quality, high resolution photographs is of concern to me. Surely, if it's a good watch, you would want to highlight the details of your sale item.
    I'm wearing my mid 60's 105.012 right now. I'll take a quick, one handed shot with a phone camera in 30 seconds and provide better detail including the incorrect bits and decades of dirt.
    One shot and you can see what's good and what needs doing with this watch.
    (A service, correct crown + chrono, straighten up the bezel and give it a light clean... I've been told).

    If I turned it over and took another quick shot, the same would be true of the double bevel case back. 30 seconds with a phone camera and you would have most of the story! It ain't that difficult!... so you've got to wonder why they don't do it for the actual sales shots???
